Chapter 1096: Discussing Terms of Surrender

When Itami finally returned to the palace, she had many thoughts on her mind, so much so that she had remained completely and utterly silent throughout the journey back. Once inside the large residence, she thanked Kristoffer for the tour and allowed the boy to take her mother and sister to the dining hall for a nice meal.

Itami herself had more important matters to take care of, and after having a member of Berengar's staff lead her to his location, she found herself staring at a locked door which led to the Kaiser's office. Evidently, the receptionist had gone home for the day, judging by her lack of presence. 

Without consideration of what the Kaiser may be up to, Itami knocked repeatedly on the door, until it was opened by a golden-haired beauty that Itami recognized as one of Berengar's wives. Adela looked at the albino empress with a hint of surprise before allowing her entry to the room.
